If you are rooted you can look in /system/app and see if you see a file called LiveWallpapers.apk as that is the livewallpers I am pretty sure. If you don't have that you can download any ROM and just extract one from it and install it and by doing the steps below....One of the latest ROMS based on the
.340 http://androidforums.com/droid-x-all-things-root/234360-rom-apex-1-3-1-droid-x-running-running-fast-can-12-16-10-a.html
Extract the ROM zip file on your desktop and then go to the system folder and choose the app folder and copy the livewallpaper.apk some place where you know where it is.
Copy the file to your SD-Card
Open “Root Explorer”
Set folder sytem/app to RW
Copy the new “livewallpaper.apk” into “system/app” from your sd card
Set the permissions on it by long pressing on it and choose permissions; set user access to read and write; set group and others to be READ
Set folder back to R/O
Reboot
Enjoy
Not sure why the Gingerbread Themed Keyboard would have removed it though as I have a themed version on mine from GregTard over at Team Black Hat (Who is also right here on XDA I see) and it installed with no issues at all so that part is wierd to me because it truly is an awesome looking keyboard and I have had no isues with it at all
Hope this helps you and I know that it works because I have done it many times when I want to add another ROMs livewallpaper to my current ROM or Theme...
I followed your steps and am back on track!
Thank you very much my man! I really appreciate the help.
Good News

Humble 5.0... Restoring aosp lockscreen

I apologize in advance if this has been answered elsewhere, I searched and couldn't find the solution.
I have humble 5.0 running and added the red and black theme to it. This caused me to lose the aosp lockscreen. Is there anything I can do short of reflashing humble to get the lockscreen back? I know there are apps like Golocker and magic locker, but I've experienced performance issues With these and would like to avoid them. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
U could extract the android.policy.jar from humble5zip and overwrite the one that's on ur phone now with root explorer. its in system /framework
here ya go .just copy the old one to ur SD card just in case .of course if u get undesired results just reflash that theme
Edit....I pulled this from humble 5 rc2
I'm positive this works cuz i did it yesterday on the test rom Danalo1979 tweeted
Thanks for The help guys. How do I go about replacing the file? Just use root explorer?

Yea just copy and paste it in system/framework and overwrite the old one and reboot
I replaced the file with the one I downloaded from the thread and did a reboot. Nothing changed. Any other ideas?
And ur sure it replaced the other one,you hit mount system r/w in top right corner of root explorer? Let me check ...I guess i could have uploaded the backup of the stock one I made when i did this
Give me a minute. I'll upload the one that I'm using now. That one I extracted from the humble zip
alright I know this is it ..just pulled from system/framework
It says mounted as r/o... How would I Change that?
There should be a white button right beside that to the right. Just press it and it should change to r/w.
When u do it, it will ask u if u want to replace the file cuz it already exists. Hit yes
OK I got it!
Few things I had to realize... Root explorer and explorer aren't the same apps, even though the Icons are nearly identical. I got lockscreen back as desired. Just a side note, I lost the extended power menu that came with black and red theme. No big deal to me, just a side effect of replacing the File. Again.... Thanks for all of the Help.
Glad I could help. Yea i forgot it'd change the power menu but I don't use it anyway. I use quickboot from the market. Has reboot,recovery and bootloader. Plus version has hotboot option.
Yep. Quickboot installed here also.
The awesome coredroid theme will give you both options (lock screen + power menu options). It also gives you crt off animation.

sense 3.6 theming/modding help needed

Guys,
I really need your help here!!
I beginning to try to create status bar themes for sense 3.6 ROMs on 3.33 base but am getting a bit stuck.
I've pulled all the .pngs I want to edit from SystemUI.apk (decomplied with Multi APK Tool), edited them using photoshop and saved them (Keeping the filenames the same) then recompiled to get the new APK (ensuring it is still named SystemUI.apk).
I don't know how to create flashable zips so have used root explorer to replace the original SystemUI.apk file with my new one and set permissions to rw-r--r-- and rebooted but nothing changes.
I don't know if I need to edit more than these image files (like stuff in framework.res.apk) or if there's anything else apart from image editing I need to do. Can anyone please guide me on this?
Once I can do this, I would love to be able to create flashable zips, to flash new themes and I have found odd bits of info here and there online about how to create them, but I am still unsure about this, so if anyone can help me with that as well, it would be great.
Can anyone please help/guide me here?]
Thank you :fingers-crossed:

Hi,

[MOD] Theme Store- How to keep your stock icons on any theme

*Dont you hate when you like a theme but hate the icons!!! I will give you a simple guide to download the theme you want and keep your stock icons
~Keep your stock icons for any theme~
*ROOTED REQUIRED*
*Please read complete guide*
*Make sure you are not using the theme you are applying this to! Apply a different theme while your editing this file!
1. Using a file explorer, go to data/overlays/jsonfiles/userjson and find the theme you want to keep stock icons!
2. Open file and hit the edit button! Look for this line a little ways down:
"appicon":"com.cambunch.ThemeName.appicon",
and delete it! Save file and reboot!
3. Now you can go to theme store and apply that theme and have stock icons
***Also see post #10 for another simple guide thanks to @SICKMADE***
***This should work for any theme in userjson file, just follow same steps and remember to save and reboot before you apply theme!!!
***JUST HIT THANKS IF YOU THINK THIS IS FRICKIN AWESOME***
Screen shots of files and before and after:
Note 5 have to be root or not to work ??
Yes, because you will have to use a root file explorer! ES FILE Explorer etc.
Good work[emoji106] [emoji106]

Which one? Part 1 or 2?
If icons didnt stay stock, go back to the file you deleted the line and make sure it saved with that line deleted! It did that for me and when i went back and checked file, the line was still there and i re- deleted it, made sure i saved file and rebooted and it worked!

Hmmm, it works for me! Deleted that appicon line, saved then rebooted, applied theme and i have stock icons! Ive tried it on a few themes and all have worked!
Make sure that you do not have that theme currently applied! Apply another theme then go back and apply theme that you did that for!
All you have to do if you don't like any paticular part of a sammy theme is install a root file manager... I use root browser but what ever you choose as long as it uses root is fine... then once opened file manager navigate to the data/app folder. Here you will find every apk and or sammy theme that you have installed onto your device. Simply scroll down until you find the specific group of folders for which ever theme your wanting to remove a paticular part of ex. Accuweather, App Icons, etc. Once you've located the file you don't want to use with the theme anymore like the icons "themename.appicon-1" simply delete the folder and reboot and badaboom stock icons are back! I hope that made some sense lol
This is the best Thread ever !!! I always wanted this, thanks alot !!! Very Helpful

Yes you can.. I have just tried using a keyboard theme I like on different theme by just copy pasting corresponding lines from one to another.
This also allows you to change your icons to anything you want using the galaxy icon themer app in play store

How To Modify Themes From Theme Store For S6/Note5 Roms.

Hello again everybody!
So today I have a way for you to modify themes that are from official samsung theme Store, the method is hard and it does take a lot of time so bare with me.
First of all you will need a rooted device, obviously lol
Also you will need to have, root explorer and xploer. Now for the stepes:
1- Open root explorer and go to Data > App
2- You will see many many folders for the theme, in my case I will modify something in the home screen so the folder should have your theme name and then home and the end like this ( minuhome.FranceParis.home-1 )
3- Open the folder you will find an apk called base.apk
3- copy that apk and paste To somewhere else
4- Open explore and find the copied Base.apk
5- modify the things you want, for an example I changed the folder Look, I took a folder icon, renamed it To .qmg instead of .jpg then renamed that icon exactly like the folder icon For the theme, then deleted That old One and replaced it with the new one. ( do the same with any icon you want in any base.apk)
6- Open root explorer, take the new modified base.apk and replace it with the old one, set permissions And then reboot.
If it didn't work On the first time then apply the theme then apply another theme And then apply the theme again.
This may not be the best way, but it's the only way to modify them so far.
Do not copy my method on any place without my permission!! Thank you.
Hit Thanks if you liked it!

Go to the same place, find a folder named your theme and then wallpaper like this ( minuhome.FranceParis.wallpaper ) you will find an apk inside called base.apk go inside, then go inside res And then you will find 3 wallpapers, one for homescreen one for lockscreen, one for Sview cover.
I know that as I have done that Before. ..But what about the settings page,contacts page And other pages wallpaper...How to change them...bcoz for changing wallpapers of homescreen,lockscreen and s-view we don't have to modify an apk we can simply change it Through settings...

You will find other folders but instead of having wallpaper at the end, you will see contacts, settings, home...etc

Hello MrHollywood, looks like no one has posted here for a while but I'll give it a shot and hope for a reply/help. Your instructions are great, I've been wanting to know how to do this since my Galaxy S6.....I'm now onto an S8, rooted and rockin' an altered theme thanks to you! I have been able to use another themes icon pack with success, however when I use another theme's "InCallUI" (accept, reject, hangup icons in phone dialer) I cannot get them to stick. They will stay for a duration then default back to the Samsung goofy cartoon icons. I know that restarting phone triggers the reset but it also randomly triggers without restart. I can get them back by applying another theme then re-applying my theme....but a bit of a pain to have to do everytime!
What I have done, as per your instructions, is taken the "InCallUI.apk" out of theme's "base.apk", edited it and replaced. I have also placed that same edited InCallUI.apk into; Data > Overlays > Style > mytheme folder, then changed permissions to "rwx r-- r-w". I use these permission because all the other apk's in this folder use them.
Any advise or corrections in what I'm doing would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
